• Sights of Porto

    27 novembre 2024, Portugal ⋅ 🌙 14 °C

    We started today by going to the cathedral, which is quite small, but even more ornate than the Spanish ones, later in the day we visited the church of San Franscico , even more ornate, with every inch of walls and ceiling covered in gilded carvings - quite gross!

    Between them we went to see the palacio do balsa, the old convent building that was reused as the stock market and trade centre, and has some spectacular rooms, such a room decorated in gilded, and fake, Arabic carvings and stained glass work.

    Lunch in the sun by the river.
